Tokyo, Japan, May 22, 2025 – RYO-CHAN, the Solana-powered AI token created by Japanese Web3 pioneers, has just been endorsed by three top tier champions in combat sports:
Gilbert Burns, top UFC welterweight and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu world champion
Fabricio Werdum, former UFC and PRIDE heavyweight world champion
Acelino “Popó” Freitas, four-time world boxing champion and Brazilian national hero with 6 million followers
Each fighter took to social media this week with the bold message: “HEY WARRIOR, KEEP FIGHTING.” A rally cry that now echoes across crypto communities worldwide.
What is RYO-CHAN?
RYO-CHAN is a Solana-based, AI-powered defense system that monitors your crypto portfolio in real-time - flagging risky contracts, identifying scam tokens, and preventing losses before they happen. It’s like having an MMA-trained bodyguard for your portfolio.
Built by a dynamic team headquartered in Tokyo, Japan — and fully KYC-verified by CertiK — RYO-CHAN is engineered for transparency, trust, and long-term utility, not hype.
